Vasantha Ananth

Vasantha Ananth

Dental Therapist

I have been working at the practice for over three years and have really enjoyed working. Over this time, I have had the opportunity to get to know many of my patients and build good, trusting relationships with them.

I’m a friendly and approachable person, and I always try to make my patients feel comfortable and at ease. I understand that dental visits can be stressful for some people, so I take a calm and gentle approach and make sure patients feel listened to and well looked after.

Patient care is a big part of what I enjoy about my role. I like taking the time to understand each patient and their needs, while making sure they feel confident with the care and advice they receive.

As a Dental Therapist, I particularly enjoy helping patients look after their oral health through prevention and regular care. I find it rewarding to see patients improve their oral health and become more confident in looking after their teeth and gums.

 

I’m looking forward to continuing to provide friendly, professional care to my patients.
